Dear Technological Advancement;

I give up. I will no longer chase you, because you are simply moving too fast. Feel free to continue your amazing achievements -- but just remember I will be a few hundred miles behind, pretending that you're just science fiction.

Love,
Cranky little schmoo who still plays 8-bit videogames

I've never had an orgasm while looking at a video of hands before.

You actually have to touch it? How archaic!



Not to mention the amount of screen cleaner you'd need to keep around! :eek:

Reminds me of Minority Report but more real! And as Chance pointed out to me in IM, with a screen... I love how simple and enjoyable it looks, like fingerpainting ya know? Only I bet it's a lot more expensive. I remember seeing interfaces like this for VJing... it was still very prototypical and crude, however. Looks like this is what it has come to.

Thanx for sharing, Aaron! :)

Saw that recently, it is sooo cool. :D

Certainly cooler than the Minority report thing which is already very doable. So doable in fact, that it's possible just using Flash:

Look at the project with this icon:

It's seems to be two dimensional, what is up with that?

What's so strange about it being 2D?

It's the icon on the website I linked that goes to the project I'm talking about, it's an entirely Flash site so I can't link directly to the page.

The picture in the icon is of a glove with two lights on being tracked - watch the video to see it in action. :)

Very cool but incredibly impractical. My arms got tired just watching that video (no no, not because of that! Get your minds out of the gutter!)

I am in love with that. Love I say, love!
I would gladly build upper body strength from scratch for this kind of interface.
